Nell Gwynn

Jessica Swale

1660 Drury Lane. Charles II has cast off London’s drab, puritanical past with a love of all things loud and sexy. A young Nell Gwynn is selling oranges for sixpence in the burgeoning West End theatre scene unaware of who is in the audience one fateful night.

Jessica Swale’s warm-hearted, bawdy bio-drama tells the story of an unlikely heroine, who went from lowly orange seller to win the adoration of the public and the heart of the King.
